Probably not. Instead, it's likely to be an invention made on the Cape.

John Antonuzzo Jr. of Truro and business partner Fernando Hernandez have created kites decked out with LED lights.

The two partners added lights to a kite just for fun one afternoon, then took it to the beach for some flying.

"People where stopping us saying, 'Oh wow, this is really cool,' and coming over to us, asking where we got the kites from," Antonuzzo said.

Antonuzzo and Hernandez both have regular full-time jobs. The kites are a classic "garage" inventor story.

Hernandez used to work in a kite shop when he was younger, while Antonuzzo has been an artist all of his life.

"I have a creative mind, and Fernando has the more technological side," Antonuzzo said.

The partners have been friends for a long time, and just wanted to design a kite that was well-detailed, easy to deal with and relaxing for flying.

The basic kites have single-color LEDs running from the nose to the tail, with a nautical twist: a strip of red to the left of the kite for the port lights, and a green strip added to the right, or starboard, side. That gives the kites a sense of coming and going.

Each kite also has an attached 12-volt battery pack, designed by Antonuzzo and Hernandez.

The lights' color determines how long each battery charge lasts. White gets about 40 minutes, yellow gets an hour, and the blues get about 30 to 40 minutes of flight time. "The color definitely dictates the battery consumption," Antonuzzo said.

Water-resistant strips are added to the kite, sewn on and concealed so that no wires are visible.

"We wanted to hide the wires, and keep it as clean and minimal-looking as possible," Hernandez said.

All parts for the kites are bought directly from manufacturers in Hong Kong and China.

Two existing models from Premiere Kites form the foundation for the Cape Cod Electric Kites. The modifications take about six hours each.

The Delta Kite is a large 6-footer for general use, while the Stunt Kites are professional flying kites, which you'll usually see adults flying.

"Our kites are more for the nighttime sports enthusiast — the person who buys LED Frisbees or LED footballs," Antonuzzo said.

"It's for adults who are still kids inside," Hernandez added. "It's not the type of kit that you grab and run with. It's just made for the pleasure of flying."

The electric kites are available at Dr. Gravity's Kite Shop in Harwich Port, with the Delta Kite costing $100 and the Stunt Kite $150. The kites can also be purchased on the company's website, capecodelectrickitecompany.com, for $25 more, because of shipping and handling.
